Fun With Flags #29 - Ireland 

So which word did I mispronounce the most? Gormfhaith or Leinster?

Fun fact Every March 17, Mexico flies the Irish Flag in honor for a group of mostly Irish deserters from the US military to join the Mexican side during the Mexican American War. Those deserters join because they didn’t wanted to fight with fellow Catholics. Sadly, since Mexico lost the war, they were taken back to Mexico City just get hung as the American flag was raised over Castle Chapultepec. As well, on the city where the Captain of the squad was born, the Mexican flag raised on the same day.

Always liked Ireland's flag. The colours stand out amidst the sea of flags with red, white and blue.

The harp symbol is one of the items associated with the Irish Gaelic God Dagda, when he played the harp he made the seasons change.

You forgot a the Irish Republic flag that was used during the Easter Rising of 1916.

I'm so happy you talked about Ireland 🇮🇪

I'm Irish!!!!

Proud to be Irish. ☘️

I'm Canadian of mostly Irish and some Scottish descent. I love learning about Ireland and its history

Ireland rocks 🤙 good food legendary focklore good music and Halloween creator of great holiday

As an Irish person I must inform you that Leinster and Connacht be pronounced Lenster and Connocht. They, like most of the Irish language are pronounced differently as they are spelled.

The 🇮🇪 was given as a gift from three French women to Thomas Francis Meagher on one of his visits to France.. There is a direct relation between the two, our flag is based on the French flag.

Do one for the Prussian flag Like so he sees

IRELAND💪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

Well done! Very good video! The gold-harp-on-a-blue-field dates from the (French) Wijnbergen Roll, c.1280, and some coins minted in Ireland from that time bear harps. Good effort on pronunciation!

Keep up the good work. Great video!

If you think Ireland has had a lot of flags you're entirely correct, not only are the 4 provincial flags still used today but every county within each of the 4 provinces have their own flags, not to mention other more unofficial flags used in various rebellions by paramilitary groups over the years. We do like a nice flag though. I'd say there's maybe over 40 different flags that each represent at least a part of Ireland.

Lmao how he pronounced the proveniences cOnOcht Ulster was alright Moonster and Linester lmao

I’m from co.longford longford town,Leinster,Ireland usually nobody really makes a whole video about Ireland so thanks Edit:I edited this because I spelled thanks tanks so ya thanks man

Miss Ireland won Miss World in 2003.

Do a video about all the native american tribes - from North to South America!

There’s a couple of flags connected to Ireland you forgot to mention, first there’s the Irish republic flag flown during the 1916 rising, the other would be the starry plough or Camchéachta, which was originally used by the Irish Citizen Army.

You missed the starry plough. A very important flag for Ireland.

love me some Irish...😋

Gaelic Ireland? Oh jaysus.Don‘t get me started...

Do the Kazakhstan flag since they beat Scotland 3-0

Thomas Francis Meagher got the Tricolour as a gift from some French people sympathetic to the Irish cause for freedom, obviously they modeled the layout on their own flag

1:05 "before the arrival of normans" *shows flag during norman times

Yay i liked that you said that you'd be making a video of the flag of the UK 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Love these videos, being Irish however I realise that this one is about 70% accurate. Good attempt !

3:45 I know many people had said that but Munster Kingdom's Cote of Arms looks like a Mask.

🇨🇮 Ivory coast 🇮🇪 Ireland Look at the flag they are different but green white Orange ORANGE White Green

2:01 "if we move forward in time" *Shows Ireland before the normans

He says Leinster like it’s German. It’s pronounced ‘Lenster’ without the I.

3:12 Hahaha. Good try. The pronunciations are pretty weird. For Connacht, it’s pronounced Conn-ukt. Munster is pronounced Munn-sterr. Leinster is pronounced Lenn-sterr, and lastly Ulster is pronounced Ull-sterr.

3:41 fucking hell mate. 🤦‍♂️

Mighty craic here pall :) As a proud Irish lad I congratulate you for the video, that is grand. Next time invite an Irish person to aid you with the narration in order to pronounce the Gaelic names with more accuracy ;) Eire gu brath Slainteeeeeeee :)

Ivory Coast: Who re you?!! Ireland: Im you but reversed.

Paraguay is another country that is associated with the harp. However, even though the nation's musical instrument is a harp - it's not depicted on the flag, or coins, as in Ireland, (as far as I know, anyway).

Do designs for flags proposed to replace current US flags. Such as the north star flag of Minnesota.

The connection with the French flag is that the Irish tricolour was designed by Parisian women and gifted to Wolfetone (Irish revolutionary)

''A harp is the symbol of David for the time before he became King of Israel, that is before 1010 B.C. I Sam. 16.23 reads: Whenever the spirit from God came upon Saul, David would take his harp and play. Then relief would come to Saul; he would feel better, and the evil spirit would leave him. Pictures of David playing the harp are on some High Crosses, for example those of Casteldermot and Durrow. More often however Daniel is depicted, and in particular in the scene of Daniel in the lion’s den. Here Daniel 6:2-4 applies: 2 It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom one hundred and twenty satraps, to be over the whole kingdom; 3 and over these, three governors, of whom Daniel was one, that the satraps might give account to them, so that the king would suffer no loss. 4 Then this Daniel distinguished himself above the governors and satraps, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king gave thought to setting him over the whole realm. And also Daniel 6. 22: My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt. As such the picture of Daniel symbolizes “the most excellent governor” and also “the preferred heir of the throne” as well as “by God’s grace master of the lions”. It seems not to be too far fetched that with these “lions” the petty Irish kings are meant. The harp, on the contrary, symbolizes the servant of the king, as it was used in the time that David was the servant of King Salomon (I Sam.16.21). In the time of the Lordship of Ireland a coat of arms with a harp appears in about the middle of the thirteenth century. There is a picture of it in the Wijnbergen Roll with the legend „Le Roi dirlande” www.hubert-herald.nl/EIRE.htm
